Identity & Market
Manufacturer & exact marketed model name (verify the exact product identity first)Anycubic Photon Mono M7 Max[1]VzBoT AWD 330, also written Vz330. Sold as "DIY VzBoT AWD 330 VZ330 3D Printer Kit" by Mellow[2]
Street price (USD; dated snapshot per entry)$749 advertised base sale/from price; $899 compare-at, not launch MSRP. Global USD storefront, Other plug/no resin selected; US price, availability, shipping and tax require checkout. Checked 2026-10-17.[1]$1,360.00 at Mellow, available and shipping from China, checked Aug 2026[2]
Variants & sibling models — and how to tell them apart (spec-contamination risk)Not documentedOrdered by colour (black or silver) and mains voltage (110 V or 220 V). Mellow describes the kit as a test version that still requires the buyer to print some components, and the 5-inch DSI screen requires a host computer that supports DSI — neither is included[2]
Physical & Frame
Build volume X×Y×Z (mm) — advertised vs actually usable298 × 164 × 300 mm (X × Y × Z), advertised 14.7 L; usable volume not independently measured.[1]330 x 330 x 400 mm[2]
Machine footprint (mm) & clearance needed (cable/spool overhang)Not documented530 x 500 x 720 mm body dimensions[2]
Net weight (kg)24 kg (manufacturer specification)[1]31 kg net, 36 kg gross[2]
Frame construction & materialNot documentedCNC-machined all-metal frame with carbon-rod components[2]
Kinematics & Motion Hardware
Kinematics (bedslinger i3 / CoreXY / other)Not documentedCoreXY in an AWD (all-wheel drive) arrangement — two motors on X and two on Y, four in total for the XY plane, each on its own external driver[2]
X-axis guide type (rods / linear rails / V-wheels; size)Not documentedLDO 9 mm rail on X; LDO 12 mm dual rails on Y; 10 mm optical shafts on Z[2]
Z-axis: leadscrew count & type, sync mechanism, anti-backlashDual linear Z rails; manufacturer states 10 µm precision.[1]Not documented
Stepper drivers (exact model e.g. TMC2209; UART/SPI; sensorless homing?)Not documentedFour external TMC5160 drivers for the LDO XY motors[2]
Extruder
Type (direct drive / bowden) & design nameNot documentedLightweight all-metal direct drive with a twill drive wheel[2]
Hotend & Nozzle
Hotend design (proprietary/standard; quick-swap mechanism?)Not documentedVZ High Speed hotend[2]
Heated Bed & Surface
Max bed temp claimed AND firmware limitNot documented120 °C maximum bed temperature (manufacturer claim)[2]
Bed heater type (DC/AC mains) & wattageNot documented750 W silicone bed heater on an 8 mm aluminium plate[2]
Bed surface (material, texture, coating), single/double-sidedLaser-engraved aluminium build plate[1]8 mm aluminium plate with a magnetic spring-steel PEI-coated sheet[2]
Leveling & Z-Offset
Auto bed leveling: probe technology (inductive / strain gauge / load cell / touch probe)Four-point manual leveling[1]Not documented
Electronics & Power
Mainboard model & MCU (exact chip markings if teardowns exist)Not documented32-bit mainboard, quoted by Mellow at 550 Hz. Exact board model not named on the listing[2]
PSU (brand, wattage, rail voltage)180 W power supply (manufacturer specification; not measured consumption)[1]Not documented
Firmware & Openness
Firmware base & current version (Klipper fork / Marlin fork / proprietary)Not documentedKlipper or RepRapFirmware[2]
Connectivity, UI & Camera
Display: size, type, touch?4.3-inch touchscreen[1]5-inch DSI display; requires a compatible host computer, which is not included[2]
WiFi (band/standard), Ethernet, USB ports, SD/flash-driveUSB and Wi-Fi; store still labels LAN as scheduled, so availability is unverified.[1]Not documented
Calibration Routines & QoL
Assembly level & time from unbox to first printNot documentedSelf-assembly kit; some parts must be printed by the buyer[2]
Resin & MSLA
Masking LCD13.6-inch monochrome 7K masking LCD, 46 × 46 µm XY pixel pitch (manufacturer specification)[1]Not documented
Light sourceCOB + Fresnel lens + light-uniformity algorithm[1]Not documented
Light uniformity & intensity4500 ±10% µW/cm² (manufacturer specification)[1]Not documented
Vertical print speedmm/hStandard resin: ≤31 mm/h at 0.05 mm layers; ≤63 mm/h at 0.1 mm. High-speed resin: ≤86 mm/h at 0.1 mm. Manufacturer table also labels ≤63 mm/h as maximum; headline figures differ. No independent measurement added.[1]Not documented
Layer height range0.01–0.15 mm layer height[1]Not documented
Release filmImproved ACF film (manufacturer description)[1]Not documented
Resin vat & feeding≤1.3 L vat, dynamic resin temperature control and auto-fill/recycling support (manufacturer specifications).[1]Not documented
Fume extractionOptional air purifier; filtration efficacy not independently verified.[1]Not documented

Manufacturer claims, independent measurements, packages and test conditions retain their source wording. FDM linear speed and resin vertical speed use different units and are not directly comparable. Unknown values are marked “Not documented”. Prices and source dates remain historical snapshots; check the linked guide for product details. Differences highlight text, not a universal winner.
